Martin Nangle Collection

Martin Nangle is a highly-regarded internationally-recognised professional photographer from Belfast who studied photography at Belfast College of Art in the early 1970s, and worked in the city as a photographer from 1975, initially as a photographer at the Royal Victoria Hospital before joining Pacemaker Press International, Ireland’s main photographic agency, as a photojournalist in 1977. The images in the Nangle Collection refer in part to two significant projects undertaken in the late 1980s – ‘Belfast Only – Some Other Place’ and ‘Belfast to Boston: Dateline 1969-1989’.
